My Brown Boy

My Brown Boy Open the full-size image
An affirming picture book that celebrates the brilliance and power of brown and Black boys to achieve their dreams, from poet and activist Leslé Honoré and #1 New York Times bestselling illustrator Keturah A. Bobo.

My brown boy laughs like a song,
rhythm like rain, soft and strong.
He holds the power to be
so bold, so magically free.

Moving verse by poet and activist Leslé Honoré and exuberant art by #1 New York Times bestselling illustrator Keturah A. Bobo come together in a joyful ode to the creativity, courage, and kindness of brown and Black boys. A companion title to Brown Girl, Brown Girl, this timeless picture book encourages young readers to be expansive, emotional, brilliant—whoever they want to be.

Praise for Brown Girl, Brown Girl, also by Leslé Honoré:
✭ “Warmly, brilliantly welcoming—and not to be missed.” —Kirkus Reviews, starred review
